Share this recipe

Instead of a spoon, try a melon baller, which makes quick work of coring both apples and pears. Out of walnuts? Sunflower seeds, pecans, or even flaxseeds can be a substitute.

Ingredients

4 small Honeycrisp apples

4 tbsp butter, softened

½ cup packed brown sugar

1 tsp ground cinnamon

½ tsp ground cardamom

¼ tsp ground nutmeg

¼ cup chopped walnuts

Steps

Preheat oven to 425°F. Trim the tops off the apples and use a spoon to scoop out the core and the seeds. Make sure to keep the bottom inch of the apple intact.

In a medium bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, spices, and walnuts. Using a spoon, fill the apples with the butter mixture. Set the apples upright in a baking dish and bake until tender and bubbly, about 20 min. Serve immediately.
